요약
On August 14, 1997, (62 FR 43556) NRC announced its intentions to conduct a survey of the steel industry for obtaining data tailored to a risk analysis. The survey would have provided empirical data about discoveries of radioactive material in the recycling stream. A risk analysis would use this information as the basis to systematically evaluate the effectiveness of current regulation and possible regulatory changes. The analysis supports regulatory changes toward improving the control of radioactive devices commonly used in many industries. The NRC received three letters from trade associations and a steel mill. All of these letters indicated that their organizations would not support the survey. Because participation in the survey would be voluntary and the letters were negative, the response rate for the survey would likely be low, resulting in insufficient data for a risk analysis as originally planned. Therefore, the NRC has decided not to conduct the survey. NRC is continuing the risk analysis with appropriate adjustments to accommodate for the lack of data available without the survey. The NRC will re-evaluate the need for the survey after the risk analysis is completed. If
